130. The sun rises in the east, and the moon sinks in the west
"What kind of drama is it that makes you so busy?" Huang Yan looked at it for a long time, seeing that she was still just looking out the window, and couldn't help but ask out loud. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Do you know that a large number of unidentified caravans have come to the Imperial Kingdom recently?" An Ning left the window, walked to the table, sat down and took a slow sip of tea.
"Yes, grandpa told us about it. Gu Anrong immediately responded when he heard this.
An Ning raised her eyebrows and said in surprise: "The old general is also concerned about this matter?"
"Naturally. Although his grandfather had been away from the battlefield for a long time, and the emperor allowed him to recuperate at home, he still knew what was going on in the imperial kingdom. Now most of the soldiers guarding the border are grandpa's subordinates, and they sent a message to him that there are a large number of caravans in the imperial country, and they are suspicious because there are too many of them, but there is no way to detain them, so grandpa will let them wait and see what happens. Later, even the imperial city had a large number of fresh faces, so grandpa was particularly concerned about this matter. Gu Anrong explained.
"I see. An Ning nodded, filled his teacup, and thought for a moment and muttered, "There are so many unknown people in the imperial kingdom at once, just in case I was ordered to investigate this matter." I asked people to keep an eye on those groups of people in the Imperial City, and after a few days, they have made a move, and they will meet here today. ”
"Eh, today, now?" Gu Anrong was shocked.
"Well...... It's a strange schedule, but it's so unusual that it doesn't attract attention. An Ning raised his hand to support his head, "Originally, I wanted to come alone, but I was afraid that the target would be too obvious, so I wanted to call you together." ”
"It turns out that you invited me out to dinner today just to be a shield. Huang Yan glanced at her.
An Ning smiled at him embarrassedly.
Huang Yan didn't really want to worry about her, and it happened that the dishes came up at this time. He cleaned his hands, peeled a shrimp and put it on her plate, and disagreed: "If you feel empty, you can make more snacks on yourself and take care of your body, why do you want to take on this kind of work?"
“…… Ah Yan, you're so long-winded. An Ning propped up her head and said.
Huang Yan glanced at her and pushed a plate of peeled shrimp meat in front of her, "Tell me what you want to do." ”
An Ning, who was about to respond, suddenly moved her ears and raised the corners of her lips slightly: "Let's not talk about this first, the show is about to begin." ”
Huang Yan obviously also noticed the movement outside, and her eyes flashed slightly to understand her intentions. No wonder she rejected Xiao Er's recommendation of the best box "Qinghuaixia", and chose this "Wangchenli" located in the corner, which was premeditated.
But it's not that this box is bad, the boxes in the Drunken Immortal Residence are all unique, and there have been many people who have spent a lot of money in order to enjoy a delicious meal here. It's just that this "Wangchenli" is located in the corner, and the lighting is somewhat poor, and in terms of layout, it is also smaller than other boxes. Generally speaking, the place of the restaurant is originally private, so each box is closed, and you can't hear the movement inside outside, so many people are willing to come here to talk about important things.
However, the location of "Wangchenli" itself is remote, so it is not like other private rooms with strict layout, and any movement next to it can be heard, so the drunken immortal residence generally does not use it, unless it is requested by the guests themselves, just like An Ning.
Qi Yang took people upstairs, and when he opened the door of the box, he found that there was already a team of people waiting inside, and when he heard the movement at the door, he raised his eyes, and his eyes were full of vigilance. Seeing this, Qi Yang smiled and gestured to a middle-aged man led by him: "In Xia Qiyang, I don't know your surname?"
"Ji, Ji Rongcheng. The middle-aged man responded, his voice being gentle in a way that did not match his image.
Qi Yang, who was a little uneasy when he heard this, stabilized his mind, and after leading his subordinates to take their seats, he asked with a smile: "The sun rises in the east, dare to ask where your Excellency came from?"
Ji Rongcheng's eyes were shocked, and the edge that was originally hidden in it gradually dissipated. He smiled heartily, and the hearty laughter made his scarred face much softer, no longer so hideous and terrifying.
Qi Yang was stunned and puzzled, so he had to ask, "What are you laughing at?"
Ji Rongcheng smiled slightly, looked at him gently, and only said four words: "The moon slants and sinks in the west." ”
The sun rises in the east, and the moon sinks in the west.
This is clearly the code of Mingguo's operation!
Qi Yang's eyes widened suddenly, and the color of surprise overflowed from his eyes and gradually emerged, and he couldn't hide his excitement and asked, "Your Excellency...... Are you also from the Ming Kingdom?!"
"Exactly. Ji Rongcheng generously admitted, with a smile on his face.
"Heavenly ...... It's such a coincidence, we are on the same mission!" Qi Yang Gu sighed to himself, and asked urgently, "I am the fourth prince of the Ming Kingdom who came to the Imperial Kingdom to carry out the mission, whose order is Your Excellency?"
Ji Rongcheng looked at him for a while, and muttered: "Prime Minister Ming." ”
"It turned out to be Prime Minister Ming, disrespectful!" Qi Yang clasped his hands into fists and saluted him, Ji Rongcheng smiled slightly and said nothing.
It was actually the fourth son of the emperor of the Ming Kingdom and the people of Ming Lan, they actually wanted to deal with the imperial country!
Huang Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, and caught a glimpse of the woman next to him eating slowly, not reacting to the shocking news he heard, as if it was not a big deal. The strange light in his eyes flowed, so calm...... Could it be that she already knew? Impossible, today was the first time they had met to mention this, and she couldn't have known about it in advance.
However, the sound insulation of this box was not good, and he couldn't ask her openly, so he had to swallow all the questions back into his stomach and continue to listen to the conversation next to him.
"I heard that there is another team coming besides us, and it was said that it was going to cooperate with us, does Brother Ji know where the other party came from?" Qi Yang looked at the door and asked in a low voice.
Ji Rongcheng shook his head with a condensed face: "Prime Minister Ming didn't mention it, whether it is an enemy or a friend has to be determined by ourselves, and when the time comes, we will put our eyes on the spot." ”
"Good. With such a steady person as Ji Rongcheng, and he is a person under Prime Minister Ming, Qi Yang is no longer at a loss as he was at the beginning, as if a reassuring needle has been injected into the root of his heart, and he sits firmly in his seat and waits for the arrival of another team.
It didn't take long for another team to arrive unhurriedly, and the leader of the team was a man who looked younger than Qi Yang, no, maybe it would be more appropriate to say that he was a teenager. He glanced at the situation in the box, smiled slightly and gestured to the two of them, "Sorry, I'm late, please forgive me." ”
Qi Yang and Ji Rongcheng looked at each other, and they both caught a touch of disbelief in each other's eyes, no matter which country the other party belongs to, but who would send a hairy boy to perform such an important task, what can it do?
The boy was obviously aware of the two of them's concerns and suspicions, and he was not angry, after all, his childlike appearance was indeed not convincing. He waved his hand and sat down opposite the two, and his tall subordinates immediately formed a half-arc behind him to protect him.
The young man shrugged his shoulders, and the corners of his lips naturally curled: "I know the concerns of the two of you. But frankly, I'm seventeen, and I'm younger than anyone here, and your worries are understandable. ”
